I’ve talked about how my awesome neighbors give me their goods before they haul it off to the dump or donation center. My family is the same, they know I love trash to treasure projects. My uncle recently renovated his kitchen and gave me his old cupboard doors, all 45 of them. And I’m not talking old junky [...]
Hi guys! Today I’m sharing a quick before and after turquoise beauty. I found this magazine rack at Goodwill for $3.99 and although I didn’t have a place for it, I thought the price was right so why not? I shared some spray painting tips last year but this distressing technique on this piece wasn’t sanded [...]
So I’ve lived in my house for about 2 years now. And I’m just getting around to my craft room. Blog fail, much?? It’s been serving it’s purpose to me daily by housing my craft supplies so no harm done, but now it’ll serve that same purpose and will be appealing to the eyes. Finally. [...]
So if you caught Kelli and I on our big (cheesy) news debut recently, you will have read that we’re “cheapskates!” Kelli MEANT to say frugal but when you’re on live TV, you (and by you, I mean WE) tend to kind of fuddle with your words so yep, we labeled ourselves as cheapskates. Which [...]
So I’m totally in love with these aqua nightstands. I got them on Facebook for $60. Yes, I said Facebook. How many of you have a private {large} group where you sell to each other? I’m in about 4 groups and they’re awesome! You have less risk of a weirdo coming to your house [...]
One week until the BIG day! Some people decorate months in advance for Christmas, some the day after Thanksgiving and some (like me!) decorate at their leisure and when they find the right piece. Last weekend when my 7 month old and I were browsing in heaven on earth Target (if you look reaaaaaal close you [...]
I am a mom of 2 crazy busy little boys… ages 2 1/2 year old and a 6 months. My toddler is a madman and most always at full speed PLAY. My baby (if you can still call him that!) started pushing up at 3 months and by the end of 4 months was crawling! Now [...]
I have a pretty cute pantry door, yes I call doors “cute”. It’s a full glass door with a pretty oil rubbed bronze door knob, you know, pretty standard and simple. BUT…I’m not the most organized mom in town. What? You’re shocked? I know, so was my hubby…too late now, muah ha hah! (; When [...]
I love junk! And my neighbor’s know it. One of those cool neighbors had a big donation pile sitting in front of her house and offered me first dibs. That’s where I found this beautiful wood coffee table top. Just the top. I didn’t hesitate, that sucker was heavy so I had my hubby come [...]
I’ve been designing my 9 year old daughter’s bedroom in my head since we moved in last year. I knew I wanted it to be fun and eclectic yet mature enough for a 9 1/2 year old going on 12! What we ended up with was a coral tween girl bedroom that I’m in love with! [...]
I’ve been working on this affordable turquoise stencil bathroom re-do for months and am thrilled to be D-O-N-E!! I love that it’s checked off my list and I’ve since completed my next room: my daughter’s coral polka dot tween room, whoot! Hey!!-if you’re not keeping up with us on Instagram or Facebook, you’re missing [...]
After painting my ombre wall, I was inspired to start working on my back room. It’s been neglected since it was originally an add-on to the house so we’ve been trying to make it flow better. I was browsing Pinterest, mother of all crafts, when I came across this cute craft by my fave crafty [...]
You have heard us mentioned our older sister, Sandee, a few times {most recently we shared her tips on how to style a living room on a small budget. She is the queen of frugal WITH style!} So anyway, she is slowly making her house a home and always has pretty projects going on. Her most [...]
